ANS reports on the activities of a \nworldwide group of Amateur Radio operators who share an active interest in \ndesigning, building, launching and communicating through analog and digital \nAmateur Radio satellites.\n\nPlease send any amateur satellite news or reports to:\n\[email protected]\n\nIn this edition:\n* AO-27 Recovered and Operational\n* ANDE / FCAL Object Number Correction\n* Falcon/Demosat Launch Delayed\n* ARISS Status - 15 January 2007\n\nSB SAT @ AMSAT $ANS-021.01\nAO-27 Recovered and Operational\n\nAMSAT News Service Bulletin 021.01\n From AMSAT HQ SILVER SPRING, MD.\nJanuary 21, 2007\nTo All RADIO AMATEURS\nBID: $ANS-021.01\n\nAs of 14 January 2007 AO-27 was once again recovered and returned to operation \nthrough dedicated work of the Command Team.\n\nMichael, N3UC, reports that after working on several problems with the AFSK \nmodem on AO-27, they were able to upload the flight code. AO-27 is now \nrunning the EOS software and sending good telemetry.  With the  TOPR schedule \nnow running the Analogue repeater has been turned back on.\n\nThe current schedule turns the satellite on during ascending passes (South to \nNorth) at approximately 30 degrees North latitude.  Initially there is 20 \nseconds of telemetry data followed by 5 minutes of analogue repeater \noperation.  Then an additional 60 seconds of telemetry data is sent before \nthe satellite transmitter turns off.\n\nPlease keep in mind that AO-27 is 13 years old and takes some work to keep \ngoing.\n\nAdditional information is available at www.ao27.org\n\n[ANS thanks Michael, N3UC,for the above information]\n\n/EX \n\n\nSB SAT @ AMSAT $ANS-021.02\nANDE / FCAL Object Number Correction\n\nAMSAT News Service Bulletin 021.02\n From AMSAT HQ SILVER SPRING, MD.\nJanuary 21, 2007\nTo All RADIO AMATEURS\nBID: $ANS-021.02\n\nBob Bruninga, WB4APR, reports that CELESTRACK has had the names of ANDE MAA \nand FCAL swapped.  Bob says, \"I clearly heard the difference during an \noverhead pass.  The signals from ANDE were clearly 2 minutes ahead of where I \nwas tracking.  What I thought was ANDE MAA is actually\nFCAL and when I pointed at FCAL, I found strong signals from ANDE\"\n\nTo summarize,\n29667 is REALLY FCAL\n29664 is REALLY ANDE MAA\n\nCELESTRACK has had them reversed in its AMATEUR satellite list.\n\nMuch more information about these satellites is available on the ANDE, RAFT, \nNMARS, & FCAL Operations web site.\nhttp://www.ew.usna.edu/~bruninga/ande-raft-ops.html\n\n[ANS thanks Bob, WB4APR, for the above information]\n\n/EX\n\nSB SAT @ AMSAT $ANS-021.03\nFalcon/Demosat Launch Delayed\n\nAMSAT News Service Bulletin 021.03\n From AMSAT HQ SILVER SPRING, MD.\nJanuary 21, 2007\nTo All RADIO AMATEURS\nBID: $ANS-021.03\n\nDuring final check-outs prior to static fire, an anomaly was uncovered with \nthe thrust vector control (TVC) pitch actuator on the second stage that will \nresult in launch being pushed to February. Since this is not used during the \nstatic fire, we have decided to push forward with that test in order to \nacquire valuable data on engine ignition, pad acoustics, and the overall \nsystem response. The static fire is now planned to occur between Saturday and \nTuesday (California time). This test will proceed very slowly and then only \nburns for about four seconds. A video will be posted to the SpaceX website \nafterwards.\n\nUpon completion of the static fire, the rocket will be taken back into the \nhangar to thoroughly investigate the TVC issue. With the range available to \nus only until January 23 (Kwaj needs to reconfigure for an incoming Minuteman \nmission), this means launch is now planned for mid-February. Elon Musk, \nSpaceX CEO said, \"As I've mentioned previously, don't hold your breath for \nthis launch. Given the large number of robustness improvements and the fact \nthat our vehicle/pad health verification system has increased from about 30 \nchecks to almost 1000, shifts in the launch date are to be expected.\" \n\n[ANS thanks Elon for the above information]\n\n/EX\n\n\nSB SAT @ AMSAT $ANS-021.04\nARISS Status - 15 January 2007\n\nAMSAT News Service Bulletin 021.04\n From AMSAT HQ SILVER SPRING, MD.\nJanuary 21, 2007\nTo All RADIO AMATEURS\nBID: $ANS-021.04\n\n1.  Successful Sherman Elementary School Contact\n\nSherman Elementary School in Henrietta, New York experienced a successful \nAmateur Radio on the International Space Station (ARISS) contact on Monday, \nJanuary 8. Sunita Williams, KD5PLB, answered the sixteen questions asked of \nher by 8 students.   The audio for this contact was fed into the EchoLink \nAMSAT (101 377) and JK1ZRW (277 208) servers and into the IRLP Discovery \nReflector 9010.  Thirty-two connections were made to the video which was \nstreamed on the internet. Two local newspapers and television stations \ncovered the event. The Rochester Democrat and Chronicle ran an article on its \nwebsite. See:\nhttp://www.rochesterdandc.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20070108/NEWS01/701090307/1002/NEWS\n\n\n2. Dilworth Elementary School Contact, a Success\n\nOn Monday, January 8, 2007, students at Dilworth Elementary School in San \nJose, California participated in an Amateur Radio on the International Space \nStation (ARISS) contact with Sunita Williams, KD5PLB, onboard the ISS. \nTwenty-two students were able to ask one question each, as approximately two \nhundred fifty students, parents and teachers looked on. Two newspapers \ncovered the event.  The San Jose Mercury News ran a web story with a video \nclip of the contact. See: \nhttp://www.mercurynews.com/mld/mercurynews/16413528.htm \nThe story ran in the printed edition of the paper on Tuesday, January 9.  The \nevent will also be covered on the front page of the Cupertino Courier’s \nJanuary 17 edition.\n\n\n3. ARISS Upcoming School Contacts\n\nÉcole élémentaire publique Le Prélude in Ottawa, Ontario, Canada has been \nscheduled for an Amateur Radio on the International Space Station (ARISS) \ncontact on Wednesday, January 24 at 13:55 UTC. All students, grades K-6, will \nparticipate in a space exploration unit leading up to the ARISS contact. They \nwill make posters and contribute to a group mural related to the event. The \nschool’s website will post a special section on space designed by the \nstudents. Sixth grade students will study the solar system as part of their \nscience curriculum, and an astronaut appearance will be planned. Students \nwill also write to local dignitaries inviting them to attend the event, which \nwill be held at the Science and Technology Museum.  The contact will be \navailable on the internet for the entire school, as well as other schools, \nand the media will be notified.\n\nWinnebago Public School is located on the Winnebago Indian Reservation in \nNebraska and has been slated for an Amateur Radio on the International Space \nStation (ARISS) contact on Thursday, January 25 at 14:18 UTC. Amateur radio \noperators will be invited to present to the students such topics as \npropagation, solar flares, and signal bouncing. Hands on activities are \nplanned. A competition will be held among 9-12 grade students in order to \nchoose the questions that will be asked of the astronaut. Grades K-12 will \ncompete to design the school’s QSL (contact) card. Newspapers and television \nand radio stations will be invited to the event.\n\n\n4.  ARRL Article on Australian, New York Contacts\n\nThe American Radio Relay League (ARRL) ran an article on the Amateur Radio on \nthe ISS contacts with the Australian Jamboree scouts and the Sherman \nElementary School students. See: \nhttp://www.arrl.org/news/stories/2007/01/10/100/?nc=1\n\n\n5. Sunita Williams Enjoying ARISS Contacts\n\nAn Amateur Radio on the International Space Station (ARISS) member sent a \nmessage congratulating Sunita Williams on the fine job she has been doing \nwith her ARISS contacts. She responded with a note indicating that she really \nenjoys the contacts as they have been informative and interesting, and she \nlooks forward to participating in many more. Thank you Sunita!\n\n[ANS thanks Carol, KB3LKI for the above information]\n\n/EX\n\n\nIn addition to regular membership, AMSAT offers membership in the President's \nClub.
